The food and service was absolutely outstanding, but the screaming kid and the loud parent running around the area was very annoying.

Food is good, portions are reasonable the price is very unreasonable for a small town pub. Two salads, one appetizer ($14), and two lemonades with tip $74. With that kind of cost, better to find a restaurant with an entree and a couple drinks before spending this kind of money on ( bar food). Will not return.

my sister and i ordered a seafood basket, 2 very large pieces of fried fish and 5 large shrimp to share. it came with sweet potato fries and coleslaw. we ordered an extra side of coleslaw. quantity of food was very generous. service was excellent. coleslaw was good. the shrimp was ok. the fish and the fries were fried to the point of only being able to eat the center of the fish, the fries were inedible. they charged $6 for the extra side of coleslaw. first and last time at the courthouse pub

I really wanted to like this place, but the food and overall experience fell short for me.

We ordered the steak appetizer with garlic bread. The bread had an odd taste and texture, and the steak was extremely tough, chewy, and fatty. I actually had to spit out one bite because it got stuck in my braces. I only managed a bite or two. When my entrée arrived, it turned out to be the same steak, with the same issues – gristly, difficult to cut, and lacking flavor. Unfortunately, I couldn’t eat it.

Our server was friendly and did remove my entrée from the bill, which I appreciate. However, she repeatedly mentioned that we had eaten all of the steak appetizer, which wasn’t accurate. My husband ate most of it; I barely touched mine, so that felt a bit uncomfortable to hear multiple times.

Seating was also an issue. The restaurant says “seat yourself,” and we unknowingly picked a spot where the floor dips. With mobility limitations, it was extremely uncomfortable and difficult to sit there. Clearer guidance would help guests pick a suitable spot.

For the price point, I expected better quality. The menu leans toward the higher end for bar-style food, so the tough steak and lack of flavor were disappointing.

The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was nice, but based on the food quality, comfort level, and price, I don’t plan on returning.

A great place to go for a drink and some fabulous food. Visiting family in Mason and decided to take the whole crew. Great variety of drinks with some locally produced options as well. Everyone devoured their food - appetizers of Mozzarella Cheese stick and delicious Steak bites!!! Definitely recommend. Early dinners of Chef Salad (huge and loaded with ham &turkey), great variety of grinders, special of day soup - Pepperjack crab and half sandwich - excellent, Burger was ordered medium rare and was perfectly cooked with side of sweet potato fries (yum) and the kids loved their Mac & cheese, corn dogs and fries.
Can sit outside on the patio if noise is a problem (what bar/dining establishment isn't loud at times) BUT food, service and friendly atmosphere more than makes up for that!
A must visit.
